important aspect to our spiritual development.
As one progresses on the path, one seeks silence more and more.
It will be a great comfort, a tremendous source of solace and peace.
Once you find deep solitude and calm, there will be a great gladness in your heart.
Here finally is the place where you need neither defense or offense -
the place where you can truly be open.

this is the peace that seems to elude so many.
This is the beauty of the Tao.
